The New York Giants (5-3) will continue their 3-game home stand with a prime time matchup with the Cincinnati Bengals (3-4-1) on Monday night football.

The New York Giants (5-3) are coming off their third straight win of the season and will look to maintain their edge in the NFC playoff race as they play host to the Cincinnati Bengals (3-4-1) on Monday night football.

Giants hoping to continue winning streak

Last week, the Giants defeated the Philadelphia Eagles for the first time since 2014 in front of a rocking home crowd at Metlife Stadium. Led by Eli Manning's four touchdown passes and Landon Collins big defensive game, the G-men were able to put away the Eagles 28-23. That win was the third straight for the Giants after they had defeated the Rams in London and the Ravens at home before the bye week. The Giants will look to win their fourth straight game and improve to an impressive 6-3, and keep pace with the Cowboys (7-1) in the NFC East race.

Matchup to watch

Giants secondary vs A.J Green

Bengals receiver A.J Green is without a doubt one of the leagues premier wideouts. This season Green has 59 catches, 896 yards and three touchdowns. The Giants will have the difficult task of slowing him down.

Two Giants who will be key in stopping him are Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie and newcomer Janoris Jenkins. The Giants secondary has been stellar this season and has six interceptions in the team last two games. If the Giants want to win this one they will have to disrupt Green and keep him off his game.
